Srinagar, Dec 27 || National Conference (NC) leader and MP Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi, who has crossed swords with J&K CM Omar Abdullah on the reservation issue, said on Saturday that he cannot let the agitating students feel alone and will join their protests.
Talking to reporters here, Ruhullah Mehdi said: "If the government fails to take students into confidence over the pending decision on the reservation issue, I will not hesitate to join their protest."
"I have made a simple and straightforward demand before the authorities, to engage with the students and apprise them of the status of the decision-making process. Talk to the students, tell them what decisions have been taken, and what the status of the file is. If something falls under the oath of secrecy, don’t disclose those details, but at least take the students into confidence," he said.
The NC MP from Srinagar-Budgam Lok Sabha constituency voiced concern over what he termed as repeated notifications and delays that have caused disappointment among students.
